The red candles were put out in the bridal chamber last night, and I paid my respects to my uncle and aunt before Xiaotang. After finishing makeup, I asked my husband and son-in-law in a low voice, whether the thrush is dark or light.
It is etiquette for the groom to take the bride to visit his parents on the morning of the second day of his wedding.
The royal family is no exception.
Zhao Han specially stayed with the queen to sleep, waiting for the prince and princess to come to say hello.
The four of them had breakfast together, and after a few casual conversations, Zhao Han got up to deal with government affairs and asked Fei Rulan to continue chatting with his son and daughter-in-law.
Just as he sat down, Zhao Han ordered: "Call Na Lai."
The Prince Narai of Siam took a two-year crash course at the Nanjing Military Academy, and now serves as a guard of the imperial city.
Nalai received the order and rushed to see him.
Zhao Han asked the female officer to hand over a letter of credence: "Your father is seriously ill and is under house arrest by your brother. Your uncle sent troops to rescue him and killed your brother. Your father also died in the rebellion. Now, your uncle is regent in Siam, Ask me to canonize him as King of Siam."
Prince Nalai didn't even read the letter of credence, so he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, Rong Bing, your elder brother is weak, and it is absolutely impossible to imprison his father and usurp the throne. Please borrow five hundred soldiers from your majesty, and Rong Chen will return to the country to punish the real regicide." people!"
"Okay, I will canonize you as the King of Siam, and you can go to Guangnan Province to borrow troops with the documents." Zhao Han actually agreed.
Is it because Prince Narai has always been very loyal?
There is this reason.
But more importantly, Zhao Han could tell that this guy named Na Lai had hidden ambition in his eyes. At the same time, he is extremely rational and able to see the general trend clearly.
After Prince Nalai left the palace, he couldn't hold back his joy at last, and a smug smile appeared on his face.
As a prince, he came to Nanjing as a bodyguard. Isn't this the day he's been waiting for?
Don't look like a wimpy old king of Siam, he was a powerful minister usurping the throne when he was young. The entire process of usurping the throne can be regarded as a classic case of a minister taking the position¡ª¡ª
First unite all forces to prevent the vice king of Siam from succeeding to the throne, support the young prince to ascend the throne, and take the opportunity to become the regent himself.
The deputy king was so frightened that he became a monk at home, and this guy lured Yamada Nagamasa (a Japanese general) and sent Yamada Nagamasa to encourage the deputy king to seize the throne. Deputy Wang Huanhuan happily returned to Beijing and was immediately arrested. He was arrested and not killed, but deliberately exiled, so that the deputy king would flee and raise troops to separate the regime.
At this time, send Yamada Nagamasa to counter the rebellion.
When Yamada Nagamasa, who held a heavy army in his hands, left, he took the opportunity to control the court and the capital's army, and also seduced the young king to indulge in his lust.
After suppressing the rebellion, Yamada Nagamasa tried to return to Beijing, but was sent to Japan as an envoy on his way halfway.
This guy took the opportunity to murder the king, intending to usurp the throne and stand on his own.
When Yamada Nagamasa got the news, he brought his troops back quickly, scaring him so much that he changed the prince to be the king. He also provoked a local rebellion and ordered Yamada Nagamasa to quell the rebellion in the name of the king.
Yamada Nagamasa had no choice but to lead his troops to leave. This guy finally succeeded in usurping the throne, that is, Prince Narai's father, King Passaiton.
Yamada Nagamasa was so powerful that he actually put down Liukun's rebellion.
King Basaitong decided to appease him, and conferred the title of Yamada Nagamasa as the prefect of Liukun, which is actually similar to the Jiedushi of the Tang Dynasty. He also secretly contacted the younger brother of the former Liukun prefect, who avenged his brother and poisoned Yamada Nagamasa to death.
As soon as Yamada Nagamasa died, King Passaiton immediately expelled the Japanese and took full control of the power of Siam.
With such a father, is Prince Lai really a good person?
Even his elder brother is not a good person. On the surface, he is weak and weak, but secretly makes friends with powerful people, and has been suppressing his younger brother Na Lai.
The relationship between Na Lai and his elder brother is similar to Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng.
And the fathers of the two, for various reasons, sometimes reused Na Lai, and sometimes suppressed Na Lai.
Historically, when King Bassetoon died of illness, his eldest son succeeded him automatically. Prince Nalai instigated his uncle to rebel and killed his brother to usurp the throne. In the name of avenging his brother, he killed his uncle and became king himself.
Moreover, Prince Nalai came to power and colluded with the Dutch. When he becomes king, he immediately turns against the Dutch. First, it united with the British to fight against the Netherlands, and then joined the French to fight against the British, and then used the Chinese forces to suppress the French forces. Uncle, Dutch, British, French, Chineseall are his tools. During this period, he was defeated steadily by the Netherlands, and was forced to sign an unequal treaty, handing over the interests of Chinese businessmen to the Netherlands. But when the Netherlands withdraws its troops, it refuses to fulfill the treaty and supports Chinese businessmen to frantically crowd out the Netherlands.
In this time and space, Prince Narai voluntarily left Siam for nothing more than two purposes.
One is to befriend China and lick the emperor of China.
Second, after he went abroad?Assuming a position similar to that of a chief of staff.
He also conferred the title of "Praya" (similar to a marquis) as the guard of Nonthaburi, and still commanded his own troops.
Even several Han Chinese leaders here were conferred the title of "Kun" (similar to a baron).
For a while, morale was high and everyone was satisfied.
At the same time, a call for thieves was sent to various places, ordering local troops from all over Siam to come to serve the king.
Without waiting for King Qin's troops to arrive, King Narai collected some grain, grass and ships, and immediately rushed to the capital Ayutthaya along the river.
?The usurpering king, Si Soktan Malacha, was terrified when he heard the news. He also issued a call for thieves and an order to fight the king, and hurriedly recruited troops to defend Ayutthaya.
Then, this guy was assassinated by his subordinates
A soul-stirring "Prince's Revenge", about to stage the most turbulent part, suddenly came to an abrupt end.
However, the king's troops are still coming one after another, and they don't know which king they are going to serve.
This is in the arms of King Nalai, there is no need to gather additional troops, and take the king's troops from all over the place to kill Burma directly.
Make a name for yourself and regain lost ground!
At the same time, the Datong Army, which has been preparing for several years, has also assembled at the northern and southern borders of Myanmar.
